Nest Bedding The Easy Breather review: design

The pillow isn’t machine washable and doesn’t include a cover that can be removed to be cleaned, so we suggest investing in a good pillowcase to keep The Easy Breather clean from oil and dirt. If it does get dirty, Nest Bedding suggests some spot cleaning.

The Easy Breather by nest bedding comes in three sizes, standard, queen and king. Though it’s a bit pricier than most pillows you’d see at your local department store, it falls within the median price range for high-end pillows like those we tested and reviewed.

Nest Bedding The Easy Breather review: performance

The Easy Breather is filled with shredded memory foam packed tightly to provide good support. Some sleepers felt it was filled too much, causing the pillow to be too high and therefore kink their neck. If this is something you experience, you can remove some of the Easy Breather filling to make it more comfortable for your sleep style.

Our back and side sleepers gave this pillow mixed reviews, but most mentioned that despite the firmness there is a bit of give when you lie on it. They all liked the shape and the unique pocked texture of the outside that allows this pillow to breathe and stay cool at night.

Nest Bedding The Easy Breather review: verdict

The Easy Breather by nest bedding received favorable reviews from our sleep testers, but despite the firmness and breathable material, most preferred the Sleep Number ComfortFit that is similar in shape and texture, but offers a bit more give and comfort.

You can try out The Easy Breather for 100 nights to see if you really like it or not. This is helpful because experts believe it takes a minimum of 30 days for a pillow to settle well enough for you to know if it works for you. And Nest Bedding's The Easy Breather is the only pillow we've reviewed that comes with a lifetime warranty.
